Can't be an Irish chair without a beer holder :). It looks beautiful especially made with cherry.

That is an interesting piece. The heavy elements are it's appeal. Nice work.

Looks great, not sure it would be all that comfortable?

I think they are very comfortable. I have made something similar using my wife's profile and everyone who sits on it express the chair forcing their back to sit in a therapeutic way.

I agree that the chair doesn't look too comfortable but I was pleasantly surprised by the feel.

Great Irish chair.
One of the comments said he got the bow in the back by having his wife sit in it.

I was more thinking about how he actually made it.
Like if he for example bendt a originally straight pice or what he did.

I guess we'll never know. But for now I'm sticking with the wife theory.

I cut the bow into the back. I took one 9/4 thick board and glue two shorter pieces on each end to accommodate the profile, cut it on the band saw, and sanded smooth.
